The cyclone, with wind speeds expected to reach up to 120 kmph, is likely to make landfall between Bhitarkanika National Park and Dhamra Port in Odisha by Friday morning
Venom: The Last Dance, starring Tom Hardy in the lead role along with Chiwetel Ejiofor, Juno Temple, Rhys Ifans, and others, is set to hit the screens this weekend. The much-awaited superhero movie recorded decent advance sales for its Paid Previews on Thursday. Though the movie is releasing worldwide on Friday, the makers decided to release it a day before in India and announced Paid Preview shows.
Directed by Kelly Marcel, Venom: The Last Dance has sold a total 35k tickets in the top three national chains – PVR Inox and Cinepolis, only for the paid previews on Thursday. The movie has sold 27K tickets in PVR Inox while Cinepolis contributed 8K admits.
So far the movie has collected Rs 1 crore with its pre-sales. If walk-ins help, the movie is expected to collect Rs 3 crore on Thursday as its paid previews.
The superhero movie has to open with banger word-of-mouth to work exceptionally at the box office. Though it is expected to open with Rs 5 crore on Friday, it’s still not enough for a franchise like Venom.
The Hollywood biggie will rely majorly on spot booking. As usual, Venom 3 will grab more audience in the South regions than the North belt. It will be interesting to see how the Marvel movie will fare after the first weekend. It will face a massive dent with the Diwali releases- Singham Again, Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3, Amaran and others at the box office. For the unversed, Venom: The Last Dance is the final part of the franchise.
Stay tuned to Pinkvilla for more updates.
